Entry #6: Humor influences

Image
Hello everybody, hope you're having a wonderful day and are out there celebrating life. One thing I would like to discuss is comedy specifically where I got mine. I've been told by many that I’m very funny and I believe in myself and hopefully get to know myself better.  The first person is Adam Sandler. My favorite Adam Sandler movie is Grown Ups and I remember as a child my dad loved him and always had one of his movies on and I would sit and watch.  Another person or people that inspired me is these YouTubers called KNJ which stands for JC and Kian. They are my favorite dynamic duo to watch and hilarious. Their jokes feel so easygoing and seem like they are not trying to be funny and it’s always a blast watching them.  One last person who has inspired my comedy palette is my dad. Ever since I was young my dad has been the funniest person I know. In sad or serious situations you can always count on him to brighten the mood and have the whole room into laughter. He has s...

Entry #5: Mint

  Hello everyone, how are you guys doing in whatever time zone you are in? I'm back with another blog and today I wanted to discuss mints. Mints always hold a special part in my heart, they are offered, given, and taken by friends and family, and hold memories. There is one that comes to mind when I think of mints. In this blog, I would love it if you participated in a game where you have to guess the mint brand I’m discussing. This particular one is a circular shape very small but very powerful at the same time and is whiter than paper or snow. When I first lay my hands on the packaging it makes the sound of tin or foil being used when opening it. Then when getting it there are multiple and there is a bit of white powder residue surrounding each one. As it lays in my mouth it melts gradually and breaks down into smaller pieces. If I were to bite into it, it would be hard to do but it's yet on the softer side compared to others. It has a very fresh and cool taste, and leaves my...

Entry #4: life as a First Generation

Image
          Hey everyone, I hope you are having a wonderful day and make sure to tell your parents how much you appreciate them. As a first generation, I’ve dedicated my life to studies and trying to earn, not only my high school degree but my college degree. This is why I’m in the ace program and why I am in AP classes to get a Headstart on my college path and to be successful in life so hopefully I can be a person that changes lives, and can strive like my parents hope for. My parents are very hard-working people and I am very motivated by them and look up to them. I wish to not only to match the steps they took to have the amazing jobs they have now but to do better. As a first generation, I want to make my parents proud and because I have the ability to college unlike them. My mom, Claudia, was an immigrant. She came to the United States when she was a baby, preventing her from getting her college degree but because of her hard work, she works for the cit...

Entry #3: "My Kind"

Image
     Hey everyone, hope your having an amazing day and thanks for tuning in another blog. We all connect to songs. Songs are something we can connect emotionally or by experience along with making us feel a certain way. Songs are di verse and available to everyone. Most people don't know, but songs have meaning and purpose behind them causing that loving connection between a person and lyrics. One song that is the most meaningful and relatable to me is “My Kind” by Alessia Cara. Now most of you all might know Alessia from the song “Here” but “My Kind” is a totally different perspective in which she talks about her childhood and to break it down I we’ll be going through it’s rhetorical situation which includes the writer, adience, context, exigence, and purpose. "My Kind" By Alessia Cara lyrics : “Do you recall the days at your old place? Playing with Troll dolls to scare the kids away My closet was a time machine, your's the stage I wish we told those little girls t...
